1. Nearly 13 metres below the riverbed and 33 metres below ground level, the first segment of Kolkata's underwater metro is located.
2. There are four stations in all on this metro system: Esplanade, Mahakaran, Howrah, and Howrah Maidan. It will also take just 45 seconds to complete the entire tunnel.
3. The East-West Metro Corridor of Kolkata includes this 520-metre metro tunnel, which spans the river from Salt Lake Sector V, the city's IT sector, in the east to Howrah Maidan in the west.
4. The route between Howrah and Sealdah, which is almost entirely covered by the Kolkata Metro, will take 40 minutes to complete by rail, as opposed to 1.5 hours by road.
5. As it goes through heavily populated neighbourhoods along Brabourne Road in the Burrabazar neighbourhood, where a number of century-old houses had to relocate their occupants to hotels during subterranean work there, the tunnel's construction from Howrah Maidan to Esplanade had to deal with a number of difficulties.
6. There were several cracks in about 12 structures at Madan Dutta Lane in Bowbazar both this year and the year before.
